(Hierarchical) Generalized Linear Models
(Hierarchical) Generalized Linear Models
This workshop will introduce Generalized Linear Models (GLMs), which allow one to model non-Gaussian (i.e., non-normal) data.
By the end of this session, participants will be familiar with the three parts of GLMs (family of distribution, linear predictor, and link function) and will be able to decide what family of distributions and link function to choose for their data. They will also be able to interpret the output of the summary() function and diagnostic plots for (H)GLMs and recognize the limitations of (H)GLMs.

All About T-tests and Visualizations
All About T-tests and Visualizations
This session will introduce participants to the various types of t-tests, including one-sample, two-sample, paired, and one-sided tests. Attendees will learn about the appropriate applications for each type and the visualization techniques that can enhance the interpretation of t-test results.
By the end of the session, participants should be able to apply and visually represent different t-tests, interpret their results, understand the implications of multiple testing corrections, and select the appropriate test for their data.

Generalized Additive Models
Generalized Additive Models
This workshop will introduce Generalized Additive Models (GAMs), which allow one to fit models that are complex and nonlinear but easily interpretable, unlike many “black-box” machine learning models.
By the end of this session, participants will be able to fit GAMs in R using the mgcv package and understand the advantages of GAMs over GLMs and LMs.

Non-parametric Tests and Visualizations
Non-parametric Tests and Visualizations
This session will introduce participants to non-parametric tests, which are useful when data distributions do not meet the assumptions of parametric tests. Attendees will learn to compare the adaptability of these tests with different data distributions and to visualize their operation.
By the end of the session, participants should be able to choose and apply the appropriate non-parametric tests for their data, visualize the operation of these tests, and understand the challenges of multiple testing with non-parametric methods.

ANOVA and Blocking
ANOVA and Blocking
This session will introduce participants to the Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), a statistical method used for comparing the means of three or more groups. The concept of blocking will also be introduced to reduce noise and isolate sources of variation.
By the end of the session, participants should be able to use ANOVA for multi-treatment analysis, implement blocking in experimental design, calculate the F statistic for assessing significance, and appreciate how blocking can improve the efficiency of a study.
